config.gem 'ruby-ole'

This had me screwed up for hours, trying to figure out why the ruby-ole gem was coming up as "not installed" but then it still worked. You need to specify a :lib for it.

config.gem "ruby-ole", :lib => 'ole/file_system', :version => "1.2.10.1"

Gem developers, PLEASE, if there is anything special/nonstandard about using your gem, PLEASE, mention in prominently in the documentation. I don't think that's too much to ask.
